The ad read: "Need Help? Bills due? Tired of ducking the
Landlord? Come One . . . Come All to the Typing Room! We
pay good, honest Money for your Story of Desperation
and Despair." And it led to a room with a coin-operated
typewriter where you could pour out your troubles and
expect something in return. Corrine had been there before
and found answers. Others follow when they receive their
own ad. But who runs this place and why, and just how
do the comatose and near-death Alzheimer's patients
in the Madison Care Facility fit in?
